In light of our discussions here at Dear Author about historical accuracy, I thought that this author’s viewpoint was worth publishing.
It was a really interesting insight into the time period and the balancing an author must do in order to create vibrant characters that still resonate with the period. She offered this essay about her work and the struggles of including women in her historically accurate paranormal stories. She fully meshed the vampire with romance and accurately detailed historical fiction and filtered it through a feminist perspective that both the giving of sustenance and its taking were of equal erotic potency.” While the Saint-Germain series is technically not a romance (Saint Germain cycles through more than one woman during his immortal life span), the Saint-Germain series was perhaps the first genre fiction that attempted to show vampires in a positive light and to “subvert the standard myth to invent the first vampire who was more honorable, humane, and heroic than most of the humans around him.
She began writing the Saint Germain stories four decades ago with the first Saint-Germain book published in 1978.
